Bold Colors are Gearing Up on Virginia’s Creeper Trail

December 17, 2018 by Sarah C Miller5 Comments

A helicopter pilot by trade, my favorite way to take in the fall foliage for years has been to cruise around on a sunny day at about five hundred feet when colors are at their peak.  It was my favorite - until I rode a bicycle down Virginia’s Creeper Trail in autumn.  Sure, the more vertically challenged can still get great expansive views by driving down the Blue Ridge Parkway or Skyline Drive.  Still, there is just something about being in the … [Read more...]

While it will be the end of this journey around the world with the last leg from Paris back to Frankfurt tomorrow, perhaps it’s the start of something else. I want to believe that my days of living and working with people who do not share my values are over (or at least I will be conscious of the … [Read more...]

Introduction to Havana

November 22, 2018 by Dave14 Comments

I learned that it takes a few days to warm to Cuba - but when you do, its alluring embrace grabs you with all it has and doesn't let go.
